Surrounded by mountains, this place looks extremely desolate compared to the prosperity of big cities.
Both assistants doubted whether they had gone the wrong way, but Ji Yueze firmly believed that as long as he went forward, he would be closer to Bai Yiyan.
After another hour and a half of walking in twists and turns, the assistant got out of the car and inquired, and found that he had actually arrived at his destination.
This is a small town, neither prosperous nor isolated. There is not a large population here, but it gives people a very leisurely feeling.
The assistant asked for directions while driving, and came to a small building on the outskirts of a small town.
This small building is quite conspicuous in this town. It has two floors and is in the style of a villa. There is a large garden in front of the door, surrounded by a wall. There are ivy crawling on the wall. It doesn't look like it is newly built. It has been more than ten years, but the flowers and plants here are particularly fresh in this spring.
"Boss, do you need me to go down and knock on the door? I think it's right here!" the assistant asked quickly, but found that Ji Yueze had already opened the car door before he finished listening to him, and then held his breath and knocked on the door.
"Coming!" came the voice of an old lady.
Immediately afterwards, Menzila opened the door, and a thin old lady in good spirits stood in front of the door, wearing reading glasses and holding a long bean in her hand. She seemed to be cooking.
"Aren't you... that... Xiaoyan's boyfriend?" After the old lady suddenly saw Ji Yueze, she pointed at his face, and then struggled to figure out who he was in her mind.
"Grandma, hello, I'm Ji Yueze, I'm Xiaoyan's boyfriend. Is she here?" Ji Yueze quickly introduced himself, and then asked about Bai Yiyan's whereabouts.
"Her? She didn't come back. Didn't you come with her?" The old lady looked surprised. Then, she stuck her head out and looked outside as if she didn't believe it: "She clearly said she wanted to bring you back to play. Yes?"
Ji Yueze froze at the door like a statue, and the old lady didn't look like she was lying.
So, Bai Yiyan didn't go back to her hometown, was Bai Wanqing lying to him
"Grandma, do you want a mobile phone?" Ji Yueze suddenly wanted to confirm something. He always thought that Bai Yiyan's grandmother was really too old to walk, but the energetic old lady in front of him made him a little bit confused. Suddenly.
"I don't have a mobile phone, but I have installed a landline. Young man, are you here alone? What's going on? Where is Xiaoyan?" The old lady asked him anxiously, her eyes full of worry. Ji Yueze didn't know how to explain it for a moment, so he looked at the assistants next to him. One of the assistants quickly returned to the car and brought down a bunch of gift fruits, which he had bought in a hurry on the road. "Old man, my boss passed by here because of work and wanted to come over and meet you. This is
It's a little thought from my boss, you must accept it. "As the assistant said, he carried the things and walked to the living room.
"Oh, that's it. Isn't Xiaoyan with you?" The old lady believed it after listening to the assistant's explanation.
Ji Yueze then softened his stiff expression and whispered: "She didn't come with her. Grandma, do you live alone?"
"Yes, I live alone. My old man passed away many years ago!" The old lady quickly got out of the way: "Look at me, come in and sit down quickly. Let's have lunch here."
Ji Yueze stepped into this garden and found that it was not planted with precious flowers, plants and trees, but all kinds of vegetables. It was spring, the seeds had just been sown, and there was the aroma of fresh soil in the yard.
Ji Yueze had never experienced this kind of small village feeling, and he was in a trance for a moment.
"Come on, your name is Ji Yueze, then I'll call you Xiaoze. You are so handsome. My Xiaoyan is very lucky!" The old lady gave him a cup of tea. Ji Yueze held the cup and said shyly His handsome face was slightly red.
"Thank you, grandma!" Ji Yueze said gratefully.
The old lady stood nearby and stared at him. She saw that he was tall, well-mannered, and really lovable. The more she looked at him, the more satisfied she became.
Ji Yueze was a little embarrassed to be stared at by the old lady, so he had to ask: "Did Xiaoyan grow up here before?"
"Yes, she has lived here for many years. When she lived here before, she helped grow the vegetables in this yard. After she went to a big city to go to school, I started doing it myself. I really doubt that she was there. I feel like this place is helping me." The old lady said with emotion.
Ji Yueze stared at the vegetable garden, as if he could imagine Bai Yiyan running around here as a child.
"Oze, when you came here just now, you asked if Xiaoyan was here with me. Are you looking for her?" The old lady was not confused yet and immediately responded.
Ji Yueze nodded: "Yes, I'm looking for her. We had a little trouble. Do you know where she usually goes?" "I don't know. My phone at home broke down recently. She called me not long ago. She called my neighbor Lao Zhang on her mobile phone and told me that she was living a good life there and sent me a lot of things. She was a good and filial child!" The old lady couldn't understand Ji Yueze's anxiety at this moment. Like burning
She only talked about how much she missed her granddaughter.
After Ji Yueze finished the cup of tea, he suddenly decided to leave, because Bai Yiyan was not here and he had to find her elsewhere. She felt that Bai Wanqing was hiding something from him.
"Grandma, I'm in a hurry. Next time I come to your place with Xiaoyan for dinner, I have to take the first step!" After Ji Yueze finished speaking, he reached into his arms to get his wallet and wanted to give the old lady a card. But he felt that the behavior of taking the card was not appropriate, so he immediately walked out the door.
"How much cash do you have!" Ji Yueze asked directly.
"I have five thousand..."
"I have six thousand!"
Ji Yueze directly took out the cash in his wallet and put it all together, which amounted to more than 10,000 yuan.
"You're in such a hurry, it's hard to come here, just have a meal before leaving!"
"Grandma, I'm really in a rush this time. I will definitely come again next time!" After Ji Yueze finished speaking, he put the money on the table beside him: "Grandma, don't give it away. You can take care of yourself and leave first. Got it!"
The old lady didn't notice that he put the money on the table for a moment. After she sent Ji Yueze to the car, she returned and found that there was cash piled there. She hurriedly chased it out, but Ji Yueze's car had already gone away. .
Ji Yueze took out his cell phone and called Pei Ying.
"Give me your aunt's mobile phone number!" Ji Yueze did not save Bai Wanqing's phone number, so he had to ask through Pei Ying.
He didn't originally have Pei Ying's mobile phone number, but with the two assistants here, it was easy to find the company employee's number.
"Boss, is this your number?" Pei Ying asked with a look of surprise.
"Send her number quickly!" Ji Yueze has no patience anymore. Pei Ying quickly answered "yes" and was hung up by Ji Yueze.
